We barely won the battle at Mercury's shipyards, but the war is just beginning. The Telestines, in control of Earth, now pursue us from planet to planet, moon to moon, leaving terrible destruction in their wake. And now, the unthinkable: a new alien weapon with the power to destroy a whole world. Thousands die on Jupiter's moon Io when a bomb detonates, sending apocalyptic storms of debris that threaten millions of people on Ganymede and Callisto. But that isn't the worst of it. The bomb was detonated by a human. A drone. And there are thousands of them scattered across the solar system, anonymous, undetectable, and waiting for orders from their Telestine masters. Our war becomes a race against time: find the bombs, find the drones, find our true enemy, all while under siege from within and without. Before we all perish.

Nick became a scientist so that he could build starships. Unfortunately, his ship is taking longer to build than he'd hoped, so fictional starships will have to do for now. When he's not adding to his starship collection, you can find him tweeting and facebooking about Nasa, science, space, SciFi, and quoting Star Trek II.

He lives in western Washington.

Brilliant Sequel to Mercury’s Bane – Humanity continues to survive, but only just….Webb is a Genius!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 6, 2017

Verified Purchase

The sequel to Mercury’s Bane is everything you expect from a Nick Webb story. Each of the characters are just these remarkable pieces of individual writing, entwined together to bring us this extraordinary story about humanity’s desperate plight to save not just themselves, but their homeworld.
This book opens with such a gripping opening as a fairly ordinary guy, following his normal job, enters the spaceport of Io, and then using the equipment there, sets off an explosive that rips the moon to pieces, killing everyone on the colony, and sending a message that the Telestines can now destroy planets if they want.
This is not just another star ships in space book, this is an incredibly in-depth story that looks at the motivations of Political, Cultural, Financial, Religious and Military beliefs and their impacts on war.
This is such a wonderfully realistic look at how things play out from a multitude of different views. As humanity fights for its very existence, the best are not leading, it is about political and religious decisions, or financial backing. Webb does a brilliant job of describing how the Military struggle with every aspect of their role, again hindered by Political and Financial constraints, even though their very future depends on it.
The other aspect of Nick Webb’s work is the technical skill. Nick’s background means that he understands what he is writing about, researches it correctly, and writes it as an appropriate subject matter expert, because he does have a lot of experience in what he writes. It gives his writing, his stories, even his characters a level of authenticity, and standout from other’s in the genre.
In this, the 2nd of the series, Walker is struggling to keep her exile fleet together under tough opposition, both from within and without. As she fights to keep control of the fleet, Pike continues to learn more about his new friend, but with the discovery that drones can be used as weapons, no one is sure of what she is capable of, or if she can be trusted. The Sisters of Ascension take a bigger role in this book as well, and it was interesting getting to read more of their background. It is definitely clear that there is more going on in the Telestine camp than we think – book 3 is going to be very interesting!
This is a desperate hour for Humanity in their fight, it is very obvious that this was the ‘Empire Strikes Back’ of the series as the Rebellion was not doing well.
There are a couple of really cool things as usual – there are so many Easter Eggs in Nick’s book that it would be an awesome drinking game – sit around with a bunch of people and listen to the Audible version and you have to drink (Blue Milk of course) when you pick up a reference!.
I also have to acknowledge that Nick Webb is true to his word as well. He states in his emails that he will name characters etc after you if you do reviews – and he does – Carina station was named after my wife – and a big thanks Nick!!
This is a great read though, with some awesome ship to ship combat, good political intrigue, brilliant characters, and a gripping story in which humanity is fighting for their very existence.

I stayed up late, even though I was tired and bed beckoned, just to finish the book. Yep, it was seriously that good. As always Webb does a stellar job intertwining how political, financial and religious ideologies shape our ideas and outcomes as a society with often unhappy consequences. (minor spoiler following) In Jupiter's Sword, a change in Earth's government leads to the removal of Admiral Laura Walker as leader of humanity's fleet. The consequences are dire for the Rebellion as the new Admiral of the Fleet is Morgan, a crony and yes man of Essa (he was ousted by Walker as the Rebellion's leader and is now the head of Earth's government).
Which leads to one of the reasons I like Webb's books: the interpersonal relationships between the characters really pull me into the story. The characters are the lifeblood of the story. They are complex, well-drawn and the reader can feel either empathetic or strong dislike - depending on the character, whether they are 'good' or 'bad'.
Overall, Webb has written a well-plotted, complex and layered story with plenty of action and dramatic moments. Readers do need to be aware that the story is something of a puzzle (I like a good puzzle myself) and you will need to keep track of different events because it all slots together and explains the twists and turns in the book. There is a bigger picture starting to emerge by the end. (a cryptic hint for future readers of this series: just remember 'good' can sometimes be relative and flexible according to your pov).
Now wishing I had the next book in my hot little hands…(sigh)…so looking forward to the next book :)

This is a good story.
This is part 2 of a trilogy, and as soon as I finish this review I’m going to start book 3.
There are a couple of places where the author’s syntax could be better, but the cliffhanger he left here is a doozy.
Read the books in order or you will be hopelessly lost.
I’m not going to give away the plot, beyond saying that mankind got evicted from Earth. Now Some want it back.

This series went from ok to great! It starts a bit slow but once he hits his stride its really good. The premise is fresh. Personally I prefer a bit more extensive description and the antagonists are very briefly described. I can't tell whether this is intentional to keep them veiled and mysterious or if the author just didn't want to bother with a deeper lore for the aliens. I lean toward the latter because in the human alien interaction they are not all that mysterious and are quite human. Either way I will surely get book 3 as soon as it is out.

Many twits and turns. The U.N. Sec Gen is pathetic most of humanity especially the wealthy and powerful just care about maintainig/growing their wealth and power. Defeating the alian enemy consumes the Fleet Admiral but does she really know who that enemy is. The Admiral herself is a problem it is not clear how she came to the conclusion earth must be destroyed. We need the next book to understand how this twisted saga will proceed. Well worth reading.

I was reading "The" popular sci-fi series with sabers made from light....and I just got bored, I went from reading a book every 2 weeks, to a chapter a week. I had read another series from Nick and thoroughly enjoyed it, so I picked this one up starting with the first of the series...I am back to a book every 2 weeks! Keep it up Nick...eagerly awaiting the next one!

I really hope that things begin to go the way of humanity. The bleak picture of their present status has to change. It's hard to imagine a worse scenario but that is the intention isn't it? Need Pike to step up and create a miracle of psychological healing. Open your eyes up Laura Walker! And I hope Dawn grows into the whole being I know she is. And Nhean can wield his people magic to manipulate the situation In a positive way. I am a fan and I will follow.

Filled with action this second book in the series continues a great tale. Intrigue and betrayal, just who is behind some truly frightening events? who can be trusted? and can enemies become allies to prevent an even worse catastrophe? I'll be reading the next entry.
